Box-Shadow @ Pangolin

MoritzCH · 2017-07-03 23:59:52

Hi,

first at all, another great release with Pangolin!!

Just a small thing, is it possible that the "Box-shadow" setting under "Layout" is not working? Tried a few combinations but no success

Are you referring to the box-shadow option that appears when Strict Width Enforcement is ON?

If so, then the effect will only be evident when the browser window is larger than the layout's max-width.

yeah, exactly that option. I set a max layout width of 1280 and use a resolution of 1920x1080 (browser window is maximized) but there is no shadow

Not a big deal right now, just curios if I made a mistake or if there is something wrong on your side

Working totally fine for me.

Set Layout => Max-width.

When the window is larger than that -- i.e. when the page background is visible -- then the bounded area should have a drop-shadow. If your background is dark, then it might not be visible. I don't know what colors you're working with.

Sent you a mail with my access data. Would be glad if you could take a look into it.

The templates I am working with are labeled with "_Pangolin" at the end

Thank you in advance

I had a look. It's all fine. The shadow is there, it's just very subtle. Probably a side-effect of me mostly testing on white. You could mess with custom CSS if you'd like to make it stronger.

.page__body { box-shadow: 0 2px 4px -1px rgba(0,0,0,0.06); }

I don't want to go too overboard with it, but I would be open to making the shadow less subtle if we -- you, me and anyone else with an opinion -- can settle on a better set of values.

Well to be honest, I don't know if there are many user using a shadow on their page so if you can manage the shadow effect using a custom CSS file it would be fine as well.

In case there will be a higher demand you could think about adding an additional parameter within the backlight admin panel.

thank you very much for your help!
Really appreciate it!
